Why teach coding in the age of vibe coding

Is learning how to code still relevant when AI can generate code for us?In this episode of Education Futures, we sit down with Dora Palfi, founder of imagi, to explore what computer science education should become in an AI-driven world — and what must not be lost along the way.Dora has a background in computer science and neuroscience and has spent years working at the intersection of education, technology, and equity. Her core conviction is clear: AI should not become a shortcut that removes understanding, agency, and critical thinking from learning.We discuss why coding still matters — not as a job guarantee, but as a way to understand how the world works — and why telling students they don’t need to understand technology anymore is not only wrong, but patronizing.Check out "hour of AI" a Loveable x OpenAI x imagi initiative: https://imagilabs.com/pages/hour-of-codeWe discussed the book "IF ANYONE BUILDS IT,EVERYONE DIES" - Eliezer Yudkowsky & Nate Soareshttps://ifanyonebuildsit.com/
